It seems that Tire Rack has only three choices for winter tires in the 225/50-18 size. Any other choices, where to get them and how much?

Thanks.

 

I got the Michelin X-Ice2 at Discount Tire (price matched TR) and did fine with my rwd. I didn't have to deal with heavy snow but we have a SUV for really bad days. Last year I went from Thanksgiving until mid/late March without a problem.

 

the stock tires on the X handle snow pretty well. My X plowed through NY's previous winter and almost never took a day off even with the mass amounts of snow on the ground

EDIT: and i was lowered on Eibachs too

 

I second Romulus1's comments. I ran with my stock wheels last winter here in CT, and the winter was bad here, and I was just fine, no problems at all. Might be worth saving yourself a few $100 and give it a shot for the first month of winter. You should be fine.

 

I use all seasons Pirelli PZero Nero unless snow/ice. Jeep with Blizzaks will be used otherwise.
